nashmach Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Exam was a lot harder than I expected and couldn't do 30% of it - at least anyone else I talked to had the same issue so hopefully I did enough to pass it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 They came direct from Standen's at Ely with the correct tag on them so we guess so, got to the point that we are going to finish putting the drive chains on in the morning and the digger web then put the PTO in gear and hope they sort themselves out as we can't afford to spend anymore time on it. The bulkers are arriving and we still have to change my wheels and get the grader set up ready for Monday as i say weird things have happend before, i have endured it, took me most of the day to guess what was wrong, the min they saw it they knew it was wrog, time after time i tried different ways to get it on / in, nothing worked, was only a small difference but enough to confound me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Exam was a lot harder than I expected and couldn't do 30% of it - at least anyone else I talked to had the same issue so hopefully I did enough to pass it Oh dear Colm not so good but look on the bright side if everyone found it hard then the past mark will probably be lower anyway. I found in the past that a lot of exams are rigged in that they only decide to let a certain percentage pass every time anyway. How lond before you get your results ???

Deere-est Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 One of guy' timekeeping is atrocious. He was late everyday last week. Monday he suggested we start earlier to make the most of daylight hours. Brilliant. Pick you up at 5am he says. 5.15am yesterday 5.30am today. I get up at 4.30am for that w@#ker!!

Deere-est Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 Look on the brightside though Tris ... an extra half hour on here ;D I'm on here most of the day anyway with my mobile. It's the extra 1/2 in bed I could've had which grates me. I've been late in the past, we all have. When people depend on you though you should let them know by a phonecall or a text. Even an apology would be nice It's been a very silent journey so far with 1/2hr to go yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that is true anyway Bill - December 11th same day as our Christmas party the results are out Not as long a wait as last time. Even though 30% was hard I'd still say I picked up a few marks on it and did well on the other 70% so should have enough to get me my 55% which is about the average pass mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Oh well sounds as if the 11th could be a good day either way Colm..... celebrations or drown your sorrows but I hope it is the former and not the latter ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Drove to Eastleigh for the toyfair and spent over half an hour driving around the car parks, in a convoy of around 30 cars trying to find a space. WHY do they hold toyfairs in Leisure centres on a Sunday when there is a golf match and a football match taking place, let alone the pool and gym users! Gave up and came home so also missed out on the lunch with friends. :'( :'( :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 broke two of my models while packing them one's a write off but I think I can repair the other one \ That is a tragedy - just what you don't want. Hope the repair goes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
